We have the technology that replaces the use of caustic soda to pH control water down your drain system and can save the refinery millions.
We have the technology that replaces the use of traditional caustic chemicals to pH control water down your drain network and can save the refinery millions.
Accurate and reliable pH control is critical to refinery operations, as imbalances can disrupt processes, incur significant costs, and result in hefty environmental fines. The refinery currently relies heavily on caustic soda and soda ash to manage pH levels across various stages. One key area of focus is neutralizing acidic drain wastewater to protect drain pipe infrastructure and minimize environmental impact when releasing wastewater into the ocean.
_______________________________
The dependency on caustic chemicals is costly, amounting to millions annually and posing safety, equipment, and environmental risks. This essentially flushes away resources that could be saved with a more economical option. Beyond the financial burden, using caustic chemicals presents additional challenges. Safety hazards associated with handling the chemicals, corrosive degradation of refinery equipment, and environmental concerns regarding disposal all contribute to the need for a more cost-effective and sustainable solution.
High Mark-Up & Constant Purchasing: Chemical suppliers markup caustic chemicals for refineries more than other industries and constant purchasing adds up to millions annually.
Expensive transportation: Handling and shipping hazardous materials increases costs.
Storage and handling risks: Maintaining caustic soda and soda ash requires specialized equipment and safety measures, driving up operational expenses.
Supply chain vulnerabilities: Reliance on external suppliers creates potential disruptions and price fluctuations.
Waste Management Cost: Proper disposal and handling of caustic soda and soda ash contribute to overall costs.
Concentration Control: Maintaining consistent caustic concentration is essential for optimal pH adjustment and cost-efficiency. There is generally a 15% variance of chemical waste annually.
Safety Hazards: Handling caustic soda poses significant safety risks to workers, including burns and eye damage.
Equipment Corrosion: Prolonged exposure to caustic soda can damage refinery infrastructure.
Salt Formation: Using sodium chloride with caustic soda can lead to salt buildup and reduced system efficiency.
Wastewater Treatment Impact: Inefficient wastewater treatment can increase caustic chemical usage.
Overuse and Discharge:
Excessive use of caustic chemicals can increase the overall salinity of the wastewater stream discharged to the ocean impacting marine life.
Over Salinity: Oversalination of the wastewater adds complexity and additional cost for salinity treatment.
Regulations and Compliance:
Inconsistent pH control leads to caustic chemical waste and pH fluctuations, resulting in environmental violations, financial penalties and hefty fines.
Public Health Risks: Off Spec wastewater can pose potential health risks to humans through contact and recreational activities.
